Going to write and rewrite this one kleinbl00.
I should mention that all seems well health wise and that I hope to not have need for this song for many years to come.
This was inspired by a briandmyers post from long ago:
Here is the first draft of the lyrics:
My first thought is to apologize
For being distant
For thinking so much of myself
When it was you that really made me
And then my thoughts turn to gratitude
For loving me even though
I resisted it at times
And all the wasted time's forgiven
When I remember the looks you gave me
The moments we exchanged
Those moments last forever
Those moments build upon each other
I'm no more but so much more
Is left where I once took breath
And because I ever breathed
The little ones left in my wake
Will sing the songs that I once sang
Sing
I am alive and because of this I know I need to love
I am alive and because of this I know I'll some day die
But before that day, let me love you, let me try
My last thought is towards my children
Your perfection is warm and golden
The greatest thing I've made
The thing that holds my greatest praise please
Sing
I am alive and because of this I know I need to love
I am alive and because of this I know I need to die
But before that day, let me love you, let me try
One more time
I am alive and because of this I know I need to love
I am alive and because of this I know I need to die
But before that day, let me love you, let me try
